With Billboard Latin Music Week just around the corner, we’ve put together the ultimate guide to the showcases taking place throughout Oct. 2-6 in Miami.
The single largest and most important gathering of the Latin music industry, the annual Latin Music Week is taking place Oct. 2-6 in Miami.

Artists Shakira, Myke Towers, Vico C, Chencho Corleone, Carin León, Sebastián Yatra, Pedro Capó, Grupo Frontera, Peso Pluma, Nicki Nicole, RBD and many more are confirmed to participate.
Besides the panels and workshops, throughout the week, there will also be showcases featuring artists such as DannyLux, Peso Pluma, Mike Bahía and Greeicy, Fonseca, Myke Towers and Wisin. “We’re so very happy to be here again,” Leila Cobo, chief content officer of Billboard Latin and Billboard Español, said during a press conference last week unveiling Latin Music Week’s full schedule. “A lot of people are discovering Latin music for the first time in the past year, but at Billboard, we’ve been part of its growth for over 30 years.”
